I can imagine....This time of year is better than Christmas to me......I am like a kid in a candy store when the season starts...I have a love for this game that is out of this world..In fact I plan to go to Atlanta for Week 5 Falcons/Packers Sunday Night Football....

Likewise I'll be hoping the Falcons win cause you guys are playing the Bears today....Let's get at it!!!

Daggone Falcons really stunk up the joint today!

My husband will be at the Greenbay game. I might come with him if we can get a sitter.

at this stage i'm just hoping the eagles play the rest of this season to the same spectacular defeats we've seen the past 3 games. the only reason we've got to playoffs the past years have been lucky breaks and talent on the field in spite of the dumb coaching and time mismanagement decisions from the coaching staff.

for the first time in forever i watched the post game interview on the eagles website because that loss was just crushing.. i can't believe andy reid was stupid enough to admit to coasting when they had the lead.... saying something as stupid as "they won because they scored more points than we did".

with the team we have and the amount of $$ that's been paid, the only thing that's going to help us win a championship is the front office to hire a new coach.

Quite franlkly, I am suprised that Reid has lasted as long as he had. The Eagles are known for playoff near misses and choking at key moments when they do it make it.

I will also say that I feel a twinge of sympathy for Vick because he is doing what he can to will that team to win and is taking a beating week for week...It really is not his fault that they are 1-3. The Eagles defense is not good enough to be 'coasting' with a lead - they have proven this year that they cannot stop opposing teams from scoring despite all that money they shelled out in free agency.

Which brings me to my final point - the level of ridiculousness that is attached to this Dream Team thing...someone should kick Vince Young right in the throat. This team has done nothing to show that they are deserving of this title and its a slap in the face to the other legitimate NFC playoff contenders....and every time the chalk up a loss, it makes them look all the more silly....

so this weekend i screwed up a cake i was making from scratch..spectacularly..

i had all the right ingredients...followed the instructions for assembling, but i a) didnt take into account that i'm still learning how to cook with gas and b)didn't take into account that i get distracted easily so forgot to set the timer.

so the cake was a burned mess

i think my baking experience is like coaching. there's only so much you can blame the ingredients when you have a crap baker. reid and his coaching staff have all these great A+ ingredients and tons of C+ ingredients. it's up to him and the rest of the coaching staff to make sure the ingredients are put together correctly. at this stage they're just throwing stuff in a mixing bowl, miing it up and throwing it the oven hoping things work out well.

now sometimes that can work (ie that's how i make meatloaf and mac n cheese) but those are just lucky breaks since it's the same sloppy technique.

what's annoying me about the eagles situation is that the players are like "maybe i should have done better." there's like way too many individual efforts on that team and not enough team cohesiveness. that's where a good coach comes in. they also need somebody like reggie white used to be who can rally the defense. i saw nothing of the sort in those defensive huddles.
